The Bank of America Charitable Foundation has issued a call for applications for the Neighborhood Builders and Local Heroes categories of its Neighborhood Excellence Initiative, the foundation’s signature philanthropic program.
Applications for the Neighborhood Builders (nonprofit organizations) and Local Heroes (community leaders) awards are due by June 1 and can be submitted online at bankofamerica.com/neighborhoodexcellence.
Bank of America will award two Neighborhood Builders in each participating market, including Las Vegas, $200,000 in unrestricted grant funding.
Also in each market, five Local Heroes, whose achievements and leadership on local issues contribute significantly to neighborhood vitality, will direct a $5,000 contribution from the Bank of America Charitable Foundation to an eligible nonprofit of their choice.
